Graphite then?

Posted by Rich on Jun 28, 2005

I'll repeat this in case anyone didn't catch the last thread. I'm after making the interior of the cockpit a different colour. I'd first thought of using a carbon cloth, as that looks awesome in J. Shott's pictures. Some of the feedback from folk on that was that it would be difficult to work with to get a good finish, and it's resistance to wear and tear could be poor.

SO...

what about using graphite powder mixed in with the epoxy? Has anyone here done that before, and with what success? How does it look? How much do you need to add to the epoxy to get the colour change?

Thanks in advance...

Rich
